Bread and Chocolate is one of the best Italian films of all time. It 'probably the best interpretation of one of the greatest Italian actor Nino Manfredi. 
The director Franco Brusati, very good and not very well known, unfortunately. The film however is quite known, but certainly not as worthy. The plot is usually not the story, I refer to some of the network link, but this time I did not find anything good (and this says a lot ....). So, is John Manfredi Garofoli, who emigrated to Switzerland, civilized country steeped in a terrible racism (a memorable scene Garofoli, who found the body of a child, then harassed by the commissioner, dismissed our protagonist, received with great courtesy the self-confessed monster - of course, Switzerland) in which he tries to build a future for himself and his family has remained in Italy. Many mishaps: he loses his job for doing pee (sic!) Weaves a very discreet relationship with an exile Greek ( "Oh, yes, you are well ... we de worse," says the poor Nino at some point) becomes sympathetic to a bankrupt Italian, very good Dorelli Johnny, who welcomed him but then the bugger, committing suicide without him reveal where he placed the hard-earned savings Nino (Nino joke on his deathbed of Dorelli: "and I tell him that I paid money to a billionaire?" ) ends up underground with a family who "choose" to live in a chicken coop and constituents - Italian - they act like real chickens (Unforgettable the whole sequence, but the gem is the joke of Manfred " But a place like this looking good, not even if he could find in Italy? ). taken to be discouraged, he denied his own dyeing of blond, but then does not stand up to a goal of Italy while watching a football game inside a bar (" Italiener Unde ... but they have scored 7 to 0 Finsch's game, 8 even if 
That have time ") and finds himself expelled, decided to return home - despite the beautiful Greek, who has since married a police inspector occhiutamente for foreigners, have a face new residence permit - but, as the dates train, and hear once again the most popular songs trivia (Guitar, sun, sea and mandolin) that so despises, off the train and finds himself alone, half blonde and half brown, suspended between Switzerland and that does not accept an 'they do not like Italy.
What can I say ... he has never seen this film is a real shame. He speaks, stirring drama, laughter, homesick and hatred for too many faults of our age-old Italy, turns a man and his redemption of the Italian crisis, but many other things that just watching the movie you can pick fully. If we wanted to enclose it in a bar, the song is very reminiscent of Giorgio Gaber " I do not feel Italian" . The disenchanted
in the compartment of the train at the end of the film by Nino Manfredi is the perfect embodiment of what Brusati (and Manfredi, screenwriter of the film) we wanted to say, the Italians, it's time to wake up .. it was 1973, we are still waiting ... .
